Some users have recently had their accounts hijacked. It seems that the now defunct EVGA forums might have compromised your password there and seems many are using the same PW here. We would suggest you UPDATE YOUR PASSWORD and TURN ON 2FA for your account here to further secure it. None of the compromised accounts had 2FA turned on.
Once you have enabled 2FA, your account will be updated soon to show a badge, letting other members know that you use 2FA to protect your account. This should be beneficial for everyone that uses FSFT.
Hello everyone!
I purchased this set of memory in 2003 and it has been running in my machine @ 2.8V (~208MHz 5:4 divider) ever since (timings are 2-3-3-6). The only problem is that, Winbond CH-5 loves 3.0V or more, to which my motherboard cannot handle. I recently purchased 1GB of memory for...
Processors-- wether they be in video cards, or computers use transistors... millions of them which run off a certain nominal voltage.
More current = higher tempature = could and if not in the case of many P4 systems decrease lifetime of the CPU, you just accept this and move on when...
3Dmark will benchmark your system vs 3Dmark, no relationship to testing your system vs Half-Life/Doom3-- completely different rendering engines/systems.
Play the games you want to play-- observe/or use in-game benchmarking to determine system performance vs your subjective workload.

You might be saying goodbye a little too early-- yes there are better performing cards, but the question is, how much better do they perform?
At any rate, a novel upgrade-- perhaps an x800 (if you want ATI) or 6800 (perhaps standard with the pipelines unlocked, for a Nvidia solution). How...
I also have an original ATI 9500NP still in my computer (Red/L shaped PCB) tried to softmod originally w/ no luck-- checkboarding. Still to this day, I cannot.
Anyway, you will see varied results of artifacting in different games, simply because of the difference in technology/rendering...
